When Mag returned to the tavern, Irina and Effie were drinking tea.
"Ah...you're back."
Mag felt a little guilty, but looking at the two people sitting opposite each other, the atmosphere seemed to be more harmonious than he expected.
"Have you found the person?" Irina looked at Mag and asked.
It seems that Effie has told Irina what happened last night.
"No, the other party is more cunning. I got the location, but there was no one there. Someone must be watching. Only when Miss Effie appears there will someone come out to contact her." Mag shook his head.
"Is Mr. Hades going to find the murderer alone?" Effie was slightly stunned. He thought Mag just went to the Yamen to record a statement in the morning.
"Well, if we want to find out who is behind the scenes, we have to do it for real. Miss Effie has to go with me to lure out the guy hiding behind it." Mag nodded.
"But... wouldn't that be too dangerous?" Effie was a little worried. She didn't want Mr. Hades and his family to be in danger again for her.
"It doesn't matter, I'll go too." Irina put down the tea cup and said with a cold expression: "I despise the bastards who attack women the most."
Effie looked at the righteous Irina, feeling a little moved and a little ashamed.
It's really despicable that someone is so sorry for her, yet she covets someone else's husband.
"I'm going too! I'm going too!" Amy quickly raised her little hand and actively participated.
"Okay, then get ready. I'll call a carriage and leave from the backyard later." Mag nodded, whispered a few words to Irina, and went out the back door again.
Not long after, a dilapidated carriage stopped in the backyard of Saipan Tavern for a while, then slowly drove away, heading west of the city.
"Should we inform the Yamen? Will there be any danger if we go?" Effie sat in the carriage, looking at Irina and Amy sitting opposite her, a little worried.
"The bad guys are quite dangerous if we go there." Amy nodded.
"I have notified the Yamen. They should arrive soon and arrest the thugs. This matter will be settled." Mag promised outside the car.
"That's good." Effie relaxed a little.
The carriage soon arrived in the west of the city, drove into the desolate Tulou Alley, and stopped at the end of the alley.
After putting on makeup, Mag got into the car, carried the tied up Effie out, then kicked open the broken wooden door and walked in.
"It may take a while, but don't worry, Miss Effie, I will protect you."
Mag found a relatively complete room, put Effie down, found a worn-out chair in the corner for her to sit on, and lowered her voice a bit.
"Um."
Effie twisted her completely bound body uncomfortably, her face was slightly red, and she was inexplicably a little excited?
Mag glanced at Effie, who was tied up with turtle shells, and her eyelids twitched. She didn't know where Irina learned the technique from...
Don't say...
It tastes quite like that.
"What if no one comes?" Effie asked.
"The other party's primary target is you. If you don't come, there is no need to go to such trouble." Mag smiled and shook his head, then looked at Effie and warned seriously: "But if someone from the Yamen comes later, Miss Effie must deal with it according to what I taught you before."
"Well, I remember everything. I will never involve you, Mr. Hades." Effie nodded solemnly.
"Okay, then let's wait here and see who is behind this."
Mag also stopped talking and stood quietly aside.
"Boss, people are here."
In the attic of a three-story wooden building not far from Tulou Lane, a man in black robes whispered to a figure standing at the window.
"Where are the women?" the man said.
"Brought it too."
"Go and bring the person back. If there is a scam, do you know what to do?" The man said in a low voice.
There was a trace of confusion on the face of the man in black robe, but he still took out a pill from his arms and put it in his mouth.
"Go." The man ordered.
The man in black robe quickly went downstairs and left.
The man standing in front of the window slowly turned around, and it was Boris, the owner of the local tavern.
…
Mag and Effie didn't wait long. Five men in black robes walked into the dilapidated courtyard and walked straight towards the house where Mag and the others were.
Effie showed a bit of panic, and subconsciously looked up at Mag who was standing aside.
The leading man in black robe first looked at the tied Effie, with a flash of surprise in his eyes, then raised his hand towards Mag, threw a black money bag over, and said in a low voice: "The balance of two hundred and fifty thousand copper coins, you can go now."
Mag bumped the money bag in his hand and tied it around his waist, but he still stood there without moving. Instead, he looked at the man in black robe with a smile and said: "I'm very curious, which boss is willing to spend such money?" How much money will we have to tie up this woman?"
"The rules of the black market are to use money to do things. Why are there so many problems?" The man in black robe shouted coldly, staring at Mag with a somewhat unkind look. "If you want to break the rules, don't regret it."
The other four men in black robes also grasped the weapons at their waists and slowly gathered around.
"Rules?" Mag laughed, kicked his foot on the ground, and a huge ax flew up and fell into his hand, "I have always been the most disciplined person. No one else can touch my people. This is rule."
"Kill him, and the two hundred and fifty thousand will be yours."
The man in black robe waved his hand, and the four men in black robe drew their weapons and rushed towards Mag.
Mag raised his eyebrows. This scene was like a group of brass fearlessly charging towards the king, which was awe-inspiring.
So he took the ax and sent these third- and fourth-level knights away like chopping chickens.
"this……"
The leading man in black robe looked at this scene, his eyes suddenly widened, he took out three light yellow balls in his arms and threw them to the ground, turned around and ran out.
Three thunderballs exploded on the ground, raising several clouds of smoke.
The man in black robe was outside the house in a blink of an eye.
As a result, a giant man more than two meters tall suddenly appeared and blocked the door.
The man in black robe was shocked, but his reaction was acceptable. He swung the long sword in his hand and cut off one of the giant man's arms with one strike.
"Um?"
The man in black robe was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that he was so brave.
However, even though the giant man had lost his arm, he was still brave and rushed forward again.
The man in black robe hurriedly swung his sword again to deal with it, and cut off the giant man's other arm with another sword. He also stabbed his heart with a sword, and then raised his leg and kicked him over.
"Pooh!"
The man in black robe spat, this was the most enjoyable duel he had ever experienced, so satisfying!
"Have you experienced the thrill of fighting?" A voice sounded from the side.
Just as the man in black robe was about to nod, his expression changed dramatically. When he turned around, he saw a huge ax coming towards him.
Cutting two pieces with an axe, such a cruel scene, even Mag himself did not dare to look back.
